Marion Williams & The Stars Of Faith were one of the extremely popular and successful gospel groups of the late 1950s and early ‘60s who helped bridge the gap between gospel and the secular soul styles which emerged during that era. Marion Williams was a powerful and impassioned singer who made her name during the 1950s as a member of The Famous Ward Singers before falling out with Clara Ward and forming her own group The Stars Of Faith as well as making solo records. This 51-track 2-CD collection comprises the titles from her album on the Gospel label “Somebody Bigger Than You And I”, plus those from The Stars Of Faith albums on the Savoy label, “The Stars Of Faith” and “The Upper Room - The Beloved Songs Of Lucie Campbell”, along with their VeeJay album “God And Me”. In addition there are titles from Gospel and Savoy singles not otherwise featured on albums, which also include a title from their “O Holy Night” album. It’s a fairly thorough overview of their output from their sessions during the first years of their career as a group as well as showcasing Marion Williams’ talents as a solo performer, and it’s an uplifting and exciting compilation of inspiring gospel music.
